===Government=== The Small Country Council (''Kleiner Landrat'') constitutes the [[Executive (government)|executive government]] of the municipality of Davos and operates as a [[collegiate authority]]. It is composed of five councilors ({{langx|de|Landrat/-rätin}}), each presiding over a department (''Departement'') comprising several bureaus. The president of the executive department acts as president of the municipality (''Landammann'' or ''Gemeindepräsident''). In the mandate period 2025–2028 (''Legislatur'') the Small Country Council is presided by ''Landammann'' Philipp Wilhelm. Departmental tasks, coordination measures and implementation of laws decreed by the Grand Country Council are carried by the Small Country Council. The regular election of the municipal councils by any inhabitant valid to vote is held every four years. Any resident of the municipality of Davos allowed to vote and being registered can be elected as a member of the Small Country Council for a maximal period of twelve years. The delegates are selected by means of a system of ''[[First-past-the-post voting|Majorz]]''. The President is elected as such as well by a public election while the heads of the other departments are assigned by the collegiate. They usually meet once a week.<ref name=KLR>{{cite web |url=https://www.gemeindedavos.ch/kleinerlandrat/10321 |title=Kleiner Landrat |publisher=Gemeinde Davos |language=de |location=Davos, Switzerland |type=official website |access-date=2025-01-17}}</ref> {{As of|2025}}, Davos's Small Country Council is made up of two members of SP ([[Social Democratic Party of Switzerland|Social Democratic Party]]), of whom one is the president), and one each of FDP ([[FDP.The Liberals]]), SVP ([[Swiss People's Party]]), and GLP ([[Green Liberal Party of Switzerland|Green Liberal Party]]).
